Amazing place, food was incredible. The menu changes frequently, and has so much care and creativity in its dishes. The seasonal salad was incredibly refreshing. The Oso Buco was very hearty and flavorful, Fall of the bone tender. Staff could not be more accommodating and personable. Very inviting and warm place. It’s location is an absolute must for dinner and a movie.

This is a diamond in the rough, neighborhood gem with excellent food, and no-frills service. You will feel like you are dining gourmet-style with your neighbors you rarely see because they live in stately homes behind massive hedges.

We really enjoy Fraschetta which makes this review hopefully a 1-off experience. We were seated upstairs in the back. A big screen tv was stuck on a video and classic rock was playing which is interesting for a Friday 7:00 reservation. The service was spotty and the food, usually great, was just ok. I’m hoping this was just an off night as we have had truly positive previous experiences there.
